Today I experienced another test on my journey as a Mummy, one which scared me quite a bit and made me realise how being a parent is not always going to be plain saliing.
I had popped over to my Mums to write a blog post for my stepdad's company and Mr E was looking after Mads- this is one of the perks of having a freelance designer as a husband. I had only been gone five minutes when I got a ... Read the Post

Dearest Mads,
I really can not believe that I am writing you your 9 month letter. 9 months! I know I say it everytime but 9 months really is grown up. You are three quarters of a year old and are getting ever closer to that year old milestone. You have now been outside of my tummy for longer than you were in it.
